Sadness Grief and Discouragement

Selected Sub-Tab

Philippians 4:6-7

"Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus."

Anxiety is met with the practice of prayer that includes thanksgiving. The resulting peace is not the product of changed circumstances but a guarding presence that transcends understanding. For the depressed mind that cannot think its way out, this peace stands watch over both heart and mind in Christ.
